This study was a cross-sectional study done to determine the relevance and impact factors of critical thinking and nursing practice environment on clinical decision making among nurses. A survey was conducted for April 2017 with self-report questionnaire. Participants were 261 registered nurses working in one tertiary hospital. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, independent t-test, one-way ANOVA, Pearson's correlation coefficients, and hierarchical regression analysis with SPSS/WIN(21.0). Factors affecting clinical decision making included age, educational background, position, work shift, clinical career. Clinical decision making had a positive correlation with critical thinking and nursing practice environment. And position, critical thinking and nursing practice environment accounted for 35.8% of the variance in clinical decision making. Therefore, quality management for developing nursing professionalism and administrative support for effective staffing and resource adequacy in addition improving critical thinking increase nurses'clinical decision making.

Recently, medical IT solutions are being provided on a distributed environment basis. In Korea, the necessity of developing a clinical decision support system that can share medical information in a distributed environment has been recognized and studied. The existing clinical decision support system is being built using only medical information of its own within the hospital. This makes it difficult for existing systems to achieve good results in terms of efficiency and accuracy of decision support. In order to solve these limitations, this paper proposes a design and implementation method of clinical decision support system based on common data model in medical field. To explain the application process of the proposed model, we describe the development scenario of the clinical decision support system for the diagnosis of colorectal cancer. We also propose the essential requirements for the development of successful clinical decision support systems. Through this, it is expected that it will be possible to develop clinical decision support system that can be used in various hospitals and improve the efficiency and accuracy of the system.

Quality control in medical is getting very important issue so that the importance of CDS(Clinical Decision Support) System has been increased. Local clinics as well as big hospitals are required to implement the CDS System. But the cost and complexity of CDS system implementation is so high since many different activities including knowledge authoring, software development, and integrating the legacy system are necessary. In this paper, we suggest the CDS system architecture to be sharable and interoperable and evaluate the availability and efficiency of this architecture.

The purpose of this study was to identify factors influencing the clinical decision making ability of nurses in long-term care hospitals. Data were collected from 174 nurses working in long-term care hospitals in G-do from October 11 to December 10, 2021. The data were analyzed by descriptive statistics, t-test, ANOVA, Pearson's correlation and stepwise multiple regression through the SPSS 23.0. As a result of the study, the clinical decision making ability was positively correlated with critical thinking disposition(r=.494, p<.001) and nursing work environment(r=.451, p<.001). Critical thinking disposition and nursing work environment explained 33.1% of clinical decision making ability. In order to improve the clinical decision making ability, which is the core competency of nurses, education to increase critical thinking disposition and the creation of a desirable nursing work environment are necessary. In future research, research to identify various variables affecting the clinical decision making ability of nursing hospital nurses, and research for the development and effectiveness of programs to improve clinical decision making ability are suggested.

This investigation was a descriptive study that examined the relationship among factors including professional autonomy, role conflict, and clinical decision-making ability of nurses on comprehensive nursing service wards. To accomplish this, a survey of 234 nurses working at D city and G city who were selected based on convenience sampling was conducted. Data were collected using a self-reported questionnaire completed by 234 nurses at four clinical hospitals from October 12, 2017 to November 30, 2017. The collected data were evaluated by t-tests, ANOVA, Pearson's correlation and stepwise multiple regression analysis. The mean clinical decision-making ability score was $3.38{\pm}0.78$, which corresponded to an intermediate level of clinical decision-making ability. Clinical decision making ability was positively correlated with professional autonomy, but role conflict showed a negative correlation. The factors having the greatest impact on clinical decision-making ability were found to be, in order, length of work, education level, professional autonomy and role conflict, which together accounted for 38.7% of the total impact. To improve clinical decision making ability, it is important to improve autonomy and role conflict. Additionally, to improve clinical decision-making ability, it is necessary to improve clinical decision-making ability to determine nurses tasks through professional autonomy and role conflict. Overall, the results of this study can be utilized as baseline data when developing a program to enhance nurses' clinical decision making ability. Moreover, it is suggested that an interventional study analyzing validity and effectiveness of developed education programs be conducted.

This study is a one-group pre-post experimental design that investigates the effects of a practice-based learning program with multiple components on the clinical competence of nursing students, and clinical decision-making. From May 4 to 29, 2020, a total of 60 third-year nursing students with no clinical practice experience were divided into two teams and participated in multi-component practice-based education for two weeks each, and the data of the final 51 students were included in the analysis. Following the practicum, there was a significant increase in clinical competence (t=-4.74, p<.001) and self-confidence in clinical decision-making (t=-8.41, p<.001), and a decrease in anxiety related to clinical decision-making (t=2.54, p=.014). The findings suggest that a multi-component, practice-based learning approach for nursing students can enhance their clinical competence, reduce preclincal anxiety and increase confidence in clinical decision-making in patient care.

본 연구의 목적은 데이터마이닝 기법을 임상적으로 중요한 위치를 차지하고 있는 고혈압 환자의 특성과 치료에 따른 예후를 예측할 수 있는 지식을 발굴하고 이의 임상적용의 타당성을 검증하여 의사결정지원시스템을 개발하고 이의 유용성을 평가하는데 있다. 이에 연세대학교 의과대학 부속 세브란스 병원의 환자를 대상으로 로지스틱 회귀분석을 이용하여 혈압조절상의 위험요인의 규명하고, 의사결정나무분석을 통해 치료약제별 혈압조절군과 비조절군의 특성을 도출하고 각 대상군을 결정짓는 규칙을 생성하였으며, 이를 활용한 의사결정지원시스템의 개발 및c 평가를 시행하였다. 그 결과 기존 임상이론만을 활용한 시스템의 처방에 의한 혈압조절군보다 데이터마이닝 기법을 활용한 시스템의 처방에 의한 혈압조절군의 비율이 전체적으로 더 높게 나타남을 알 수 있었다. 본 연구의 결과는 우리나라 현실에 부합되는 고혈압 진료지침을 개발하고 적용, 평가하는데 기여할 수 있을 것으로 판단되며, 이와 같은 의사결정지원 시스템을 운영을 통해 실제 임상 진료에 적용해 봄으로써 그 효과와 실증적 가치를 창출할 수 있을 것이다.

This study was attemted to grasp the factors affecting the clinical decision-making ability of nurse. Data were collected from 156 nurse working in hospital in G-do. Analysis was done using t-test, ANOVA, Pearson correlation coefficient, and Multiple regression with IBM SPSS WIN/25.0. The most influential factor on the subjects' clinical decision-making ability was nursing Research 'very interest', critical thinking tendency, 'master/doctor', clinical experience 'more than 20 years and 1 month', moral behavior, nursing research 'important', 'single', clinical work experience '5 years, 1 month-10 years', department work experience '3 years 1 month-5 years'. The explanatory power was 51.4%. It was significant in that it was confirmed that interest and importance, moral behavior, academic background, and career are variables that influence clinical decision-making ability. The results of this study can be utilized as basic data for the development of intervention plans and programs that can increase clinical decision-making ability in the context of an ethical dilemma. In addition, developing and verifying educational programs that can increase clinical decision-making abilities in ethical dilemmas is needed.
